The Seattle Seahawks and outside linebacker Uchenna Nwosu agreed to a reworked contract on Thursday that will lower his 2025 salary cap number while also keeping one of the team's best edge defenders around for another season. Nwosu had two years and $26.5 million left on his previous deal and was scheduled to make $14.99 million this year while counting $21.17 million against the cap despite two injury-plagued campaigns. His new deal is for two years and $19.51 million, and he's scheduled to make $8 million in 2025 while counting $11.85 million against the cap, which is around $9.4 million less than his previous cap charge. Nwosu can earn up to $5 million of his $6.99 million pay cut back via incentives tied to sacks, playing time and the playoffs. The 28-year-old had a career-high 9.5 sacks in 2022 but has just three sacks and five tackles for loss in 12 games since.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBallerRead More News
